Answer 1

Breaded Parsnips

Ingredients :
1 lb parsnips
1 egg
2 tb milk
1/2 ts salt
1 freshly ground black pepper
1/4 ts dried savory
1/2 c dry breadcrumbs
1/4 c butter

Instructions:
Peel parsnips and cut into large pieces, about 2 1/2 inches long.
Cook in boiling salted water for 8 to 10 minutes or until almost tender. Drain.

Beat together egg and milk. Add salt, pepper to taste, and savory to breadcrumbs. Melt butter in heavy skillet. Dip each piece of parsnip in egg mixture, then in crumbs. Cook in melted butter until golden brown, turning often.

Answer 2

these aren't breaded but they taste great.
Butter Fried Parsnips
INGREDIENTS
6 parsnips, peeled and quartered lengthwise
1/4 cup all-purpose flour for coating
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
DIRECTIONS
In a large saucepan cover parsnips with water, cover and boil over medium-high heat until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
In a plastic bag combine flour and seasoning salt. Dip parsnips in butter and place them in the bag. Shake bag to coat parsnips with the seasoned flour.
Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter starts to sizzle, add parsnips. Cook, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown.
